Periwinkle beret

About the beret This quintessential beret embodies all the classic features – ribbed brim, a body of medium fullness, subtle crown decreases, and a small nub at the top. Its finished size is 11″ (28 cm) in diameter, laid flat. This will fit most adults.

About the pattern This one is as easy as they come! Techniques used: tubular cast-on (explicit directions included), knitting in the round, increases and decreases.

I think the Periwinkle Beret would be a great project for the first ‘knitting in the round’ experience. Simple construction is only enhanced by a light price tag – one skein of Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sport is all you need!

Someone just yesterday posted about a Koigu beret pattern and I thought, but I’d rather have Grumperina’s pattern… SOLD (as soon as I get home to my home computer) Thanks for taking the time to write it up.

Ooh — I’m so happy that you’re selling this! I tried to do a beret for my grandma this Christmas and ended up with something fit for the Pilsbury doughboy (which I kept for myself, since I’m not easily embarrassed). I’ll have to buy this pattern from you before next Xmas. Any excuse to buy Lorna’s Laces and do something nice for Grandma.
